Just published a paper reporting about a 2014 ReLUIS project on feasibility of daily nationwide risk assessment in italy based on Operational Earthquake Forecasting.

Professor M.J. Nigel Priestley passed away

Saturday, 27 December 2014 11:13

On December 23th 2014 professor M.J.N. Priestley deceased. Professor Priestley is one of the fathers of contemporary earthquake engineering. Among the large number of contributions he gave, those related to displacement-based design and to reinforced concrete structures have to be recalled. Professor Priestley was from New Zealand, yet has spent long time in Italy collaborating to the earthquake engineering community.

IMPORTANT FOR REXEL USERS

In the case the computer you use has 64bit microsoft excel, it is necessary to install REXEL and REXEL-DISP in the same foloder of microsoft office, that is "programs", not in "programs (x86)" where windows would put REXEL and REXEL-DISP by default.

Is now available on the INGV (Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia) website a totally on-line system for the processing of seismic signals present in the Italian Accelerometric Archive (ITACA). The system is online at: http://dyna.mi.ingv.it/processing/

ITACA 2.0

Sunday, 23 February 2014 17:49

Version 2.0 of the ITalian ACcelerometric Archive has been published on the web:

ITACA 2.0 contains about 7500 processed three-component waveforms generated by about 1200 earthquakes with magnitude greater than 3.0, from 1972 to 2013. This release contains the waveforms recorded by all Italian strong motion networks although the majority of data have been recorded by the National Accelerometric Network (RAN), operated by the Italian Civil Protection Department - Presidency of the Council of Ministers (DPC), and by the National Seismic Network, operated by Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV).

ITACA 2.0 has been compiled, under the co-ordination of INGV - Milano, in the framework of the agreement between INGV and DPC and the EU Project EPOS.
